Lions get another verbal

December 11, 2012

The weekend's slew of official visits to Penn State yielded another big verbal commitment to the Nittany Lion football team on Sunday night.

DaeSean Hamilton, a 6-foot-1, 182-pound from Mountain View High School in Stafford, Va., became the fourth recruit to announce for the Lions that day and the 17th member of this season's recruiting class.

Hamilton had about a dozen other scholarship offers, the most notable coming from Miami, Virginia Tech, Virginia and Michigan State. He is rated a four-star recruit by ESPN.

As a senior, Hamilton made 64 catches for 1,073 yards and 10 touchdowns despite breaking his collarbone in the regional semifinals. He was named the Commonwealth District offensive player of the year.
